Truong takes position at Yelp

Jonathan Truong (MPP '13) began a position as a community manager with Yelp in the fall of 2013. Jonathan is working to organize and host large monthly events to connect locals to great local businesses; build relationships with business owners, non-profits, and other organizations in the Tin Cities.

Jonathan is also the director of House of Dance 763, which has helped to organize and lead a team to begin the Twin Cities' first hip-hop dance after-school program. The program is aimed to provide a positive, safe, and affordable space and opportunity for at-risk, violent, and low-income youth.
